Gangster boss Beau Gardner (Douglass Dumbrille) isn't happy about the
things being said about him on the radio station owned by J. J. Held
(Berton Churchill). Using his influence, Gardner is able to shut down
Held's operation, but he can't wipe out an entire radio network. Thus, he
uses hot-shot broadcast engineer Neil Bennett (Lloyd Nolan) as an
innocent dupe in a scheme to jam all radio transmissions within shouting
distance. Bennett finally manages to enlist the aid of the U.S. Navy to
strike a blow for freedom of the airwaves. And how does Ann Sothern fit
into all this? Simple: she plays Bennett's sweetheart Fay Stevens, who
happens to be a singer at Garner's nightclub. You May Be Next was also
released as Panic on the Air, Calling All G-Men and Trapped by Wireless.
